Langya talaga yung mga pagkain ngayong outing, food coma inducing.

Kaya ang aaga matulog ng mga tao e. =))

Nalulungkot ako na tapos na ang outing, pero nag-enjoy naman ako. Can't wait for the video. XD

Sa mga tumulong sa food preparation, paglilinis, at iba, maraming salamat.

@dee: Ang dali ko nabusog pero gusto ko pa kumain nun, lol.

@kuya flor: Di ko napansin yung cam nung day 2 lunch, nice work!

@xtragravy: We actually needed as much help as possible, and we appreciate the initiative.

First time ko masubukan na mag-shoot ng video, mahirap pala lalo na at pasmado ako. Sorry kung nanginginig yung kuha ko nung Twister Batsu Game. Dahil diyan, alam ko na na mahirap pala ginagawa ni Habs.

Nilelevel niyo ang tawag sa akin kada outing, walang hiya kayo. =))

First time ko masali sa isang batsu game. Competitive naman ako minsan, so natuwa naman ako sa kalokohan na nangyari. XD

Sumuko din ako sa lamig ng air conditioner. I woke up shaking from the cold and asked Shinden to turn off the A/C, lol.

3 hours lang ang tulog ko for both nights, pero refreshed ako whenever I wake up, weird. Iba talaga kapag malamig dahil sa fresh air at A/C.

Kung naguluhan kayo sa kwarto namin ni Ejie at Shinden, pasensya na. Hindi talaga kami nag-aaway, normal na kasi sa amin ang magsigawan, asaran, and such. >:)

Overall, it was a great 3 days spent with you guys. Iniisip ko ngayon kung ano pa pwede niyo itawag sa akin next year. XD

i prefer this new setup when it comes to sleeping department

though siguro medyo may konting problem/conflict/whichever-you-call-it pagdating sa mealtimes, especially sa tanghali. sa sobrang init, hindi tayo pwede dun sa kinainan natin ng dinner nung friday, plus kung gabi, wala ding dedicated ilaw dun.

nagenjoy ako mangulit sa kwarto ng may kwarto :))

para kang nangangapitbahay :))

walang kinalaman ang planning dito ha, pero nakakainis lang ang weather that weekend. soooobrang init na nakakasunog na agad ng balat sa ilang minutong babad sa araw lang. kaya naging limitado tuloy ang pooltime natin unlike nung past outings.

hmmm, ano pa ba..

panalo ang food natin dun! certified busog ka e. (up to the point na bagsak ang lahat dahil sa kabusugan) himala nun at walang nakapagpuyat nung first night kasi tulog agad :))

sige, hihirit na lang uli ako pag may bago akong maisip. blangko ang utak ko ngayon dahil sa pagod e

mas prefer ko rin tong room set-up na ito kasi may personal space yung mga tao at kanya-kanyang banyo. (hindi ako nag-hesitate mag pasabog ng dalawang beses =))

) tsaka pwede kame manood ng Arirang~! =))

rants mostly wala naman major rants. siguro yung lack of activities lang. pero understandable naman dahil walang area for that. dapat next year every night may batsu game. yung ghost hunting pwede =))

Compared dun sa mga naunang outing sa Kuhala na nakasama ako, mas okay 'yung set up nito pagdating sa tulugan. Natandaan ko nung nakaraang Kuhala outing, nakatulog ako sa labas, pero nagising din dahil naririnig ko nang ginagawan na ako ng documentary. This year, unbearable documentary na naman, pero at least nasa pool na at nagsasaya ang lahat.
=))

Ayos 'yung pagkain! Tama si Dan, certified busog ka pagkatapos. Food coma karamihan after kumain, nakatulog agad.

Walang jacuzzi tiemz.

'Yung kwarto nila Tim, nalaman ko na lang na may sira 'yung pintuan nila kaya na-invade sila ng kung anong mga insekto nung day 1 ba 'yun? Doon sa kwarto naman namin, kinabahan ako nung natanggal 'yung door knob ng banyo nung palabas na ako. HAHAHAHAHAHA! Buti naman at naayos rin kahit papano. Despite those, I think nasolusyonan naman 'yung mga problema sa mga kwarto.

Salamat sa feedback guys! Very well appreciated.

by **xtragravy** » Tue May 29, 2012 9:14 am

Namiss ko yung PASTA!!! lalo na yung spaghetti nung first night, ang sarap nang pagkakaluto kahit ba isa siyang common spaghetti, and ofcourse the sardine pasta (daw) na hindi naman halata...

it is really a food coma outing... GRABE! almost most of the time, tulog ang karamihan...

Finally, may feedback na... langya took you guys a week =))

If there's anything I can say about this year's Outing, I'd say this was the most difficult one yet. This was the year when all things just had to go wrong. Sa meetup pa lang, me foul-ups na. Sa food prep, we came close to what I would call a bonafide kitchen disaster. Andyan pa yung mga nag-shooting sa Kuhala Bay na obviously walang konsiderasyon sa mga nagbabakasyon.

But in the end, we had no one to blame but ourselves. As much as we tried to plan things ahead of time, we still ended up overlooking a lot of things. Basically, kinulang kami sa assignment ng responsibilities. Personally, I was disappointed at my performance, being a part of the team that organized this Outing. There were just so many things that I thought I could've done better.

But in a way, while it was virtually a hell of a weekend for us, I'm still glad that you guys had a great time at the event itself. And I would like to give the "unsung heroes" that stepped up to the plate when the chips were down, the credit due to them:

Dandan: We can never thank you enough for rectifying our oversight. Kulang ang pampa-gas sa pagsundo mo nung naiwan naming cooler.

Tim: Salamat sa agarang assistance sa aming pagluwas sa kabilang bayan.

Ruel, Teroy, Carlo: Mga tumulong sa Food Committee members para makapaghain ng sapat (actually, more than enough pa nga eh) na pagkain para sa lahat.

Anne: Very seldom do we see new members join a high-profile event such as the PPF Outing, but it was rare to see a new member with the initiative to do simple yet important things that are oftentimes overlooked. We have our eyes on you.

And to the ones I failed to mention: You know who you are.

To be honest, I was near-down by the end of Day 1, but managed to get back in the game on Day 2. Thanks for the boost guys (and girls)!

This outing has taught me a lot of things. We are far from perfect, pero it's important that we have fun as we learn. We will continue to challenge ourselves every year.

Ika nga ng Ramon Film Productions:

WE DO THE BEST TO STAND! ~^o^~

Of course, I agree with everyone with the room setup. I like having my personal space and having peers in the same room.

@magique: I think what happened sa kwarto nila Tim was hindi nasara ng maayos yung sliding door so the bugs went in.
There was also that big spider in room 10.
And ang daming grasshoppers sa kama ko nung Night 1. XD

Hindi daw "Paw-friendly" yung door knob. Just kidding. :->

I also wanted some time sa jacuzzi, pero for the first time in the last few years, sobrang dami ng guests ng Kuhala. Gusto ko sana i-invade na lang yung jacuzzi, pero nahiya pa rin ako.

@dan & dee: Weather's something we can't do much about. Heck, nabasa at nahirapan din kami nila Hao and Miff (along with the others) to prepare dinner of Night 1 dahil sa ulan at lakas ng hangin.

About activities, well, I honestly don't know how to tackle this well. Pero I noticed lang, the people who brought games with them should've also asked people from other rooms to play at may mga hindi nagamit na games like yung Monopoly ni Carlo.
I'd like to initiate something, pero I've already got my hands full with the supplies, meal preparation, personal stuff and trying to enjoy time with friends, and I can't say na hindi ako guilty kasi may dala din akong playing cards nung outing. XP

@blake: 2 nights ang batsu game? Tignan natin. >:)

Anyway, from my personal point of view, from dinner preparation of Night 1 until lunch preparation of Day 2, I was pretty much beat up, just like Miff. I was actually happy that we had Miff's party to prepare dinner for Night 2, kasi yun yung opportunity namin ni Hao to actually chillax a bit.

I'm happy that you guys enjoyed yung food. I know I barely "cooked", but managing things plus going back and forth for supplies really wore me out lalo na nung Day 2 lunch dahil sa init.

I'm also happy that you guys are enjoying kasi I've been giving the effort to help since naging mod ako. Sabi ko nga sa sarili ko, watching an outing video is a priceless moment kasi dun lang ako nakakatawa na parang walang bukas.

Now, based on this outing, I have thought of the following:
1. We need more drinks. I was finding it diffiult to manage yung amount of drinks being consumed and nabibitin ang mga tao (at least sa tingin ko).

2. There has to be a better means to communicate between organizers. Malayo ang kitchen natin sa stock room, it was a pain getting items needed. Mas madali if we had something like walkie-talkies so we could ask somebody to get supplies and just meet the person halfway.

3. To prevent issues with the meals, I think it is best that we ask members to bring processed/canned food as contribution again ( just like we did years ago). A lot of people probably didn't notice the disaster we've had in meal preparation and, believe it or not, a few cans of tuna or something else could have helped in a big way.

That's pretty much what's in my head right now.
I apologize if I sound negative, but believe me when I say all my stress has paid off. Now, I await for the video. ~o)

^Points taken and concurred. Sa totoo lang, andami nating mali, lalo na sa estimation ng supplies. Ang idea kasi natin was, the 1.5L drinks per head were compulsary, pero all of us have the option to bring additional drinks that would count as our personal supplies (especially water), the sharing of which would depend on each of us. Unfortunately, we weren't able to disseminate this rather vital addendum to all participants, so nag-stick sila to the one required bottle.

The weather (plus yung mga nag-shooting sa Kuhala) was definitely a major variable that affected our planning, particularly the meal skeds. Either sobrang ulan, sobrang araw (or sobrang angas makatingin ni Raymart, sarap sapukin amp).

Pero overall, marami tayong mali sa approximation, lalo na sa food. The only good thing that we can derive from that experience is the knowledge that we can use for the next events, including PPF Parties. To be honest, that was my first time to actually plan on feeding a party of more than eight persons. Ngayon, may general idea na ko ng consumption quantities and menu planning.

Hopefully, sana hindi namin kayo nadi-disappoint. All that hard planning work, slaving over a hot stove, and going back and forth under the hot sun really pays off kapag nakikita namin na nag-eenjoy tayong lahat.

Next time, we'll make sure each and every one of us will take part in making the PPF Outing a bigger success. Count on that :->
